Former Nigeria Under 17 World champion, Emmanuel Amunike has described Victor Osimhen as the next big thing in world football.

The former Tanzania gaffer maintained that the Lille striker is cut out for success given his rapid development as one of the deadliest strikers in Europe in an exclusive interview with TuttoMercatoWeb.com exclusively. Except

Victor Osimhen a step away from the Napoli shirt

Osimhen is a great prospect. He is a young striker. and full of talent, with excellent technique and hunger for scoring goal, which he still has ample room for growth. ”

You know him very well, the Lille striker was at the center of the attack of Nigeria U17 team that emerged world champion in 2015.

I remember it well. Victor played an amazing tournament, he was the top scorer with ten goals and also one of the best players in the tournament.

I worked a lot with him on and off the field, helping him to improve and grow to reach his great goal: to become a world star

Do you think going to Napoli is the best choice in your opinion?

I want to state the fact that it is good to change league and country once again, having played in Germany, Belgium, and France.

It will allow him to learn about a new reality and further mature both as a man and as a player.

Then it is clear that Napoli is one of the biggest club in Italy, with a great history and good fan base like few others.

For me, Osimhen has everything to become a favorite of the blue fans in the coming years, he will only need a little time to adapt.

In the last few days, Liverpool has tried to forcefully join the bidding war and come into the negotiation.

I don’t know anything about it, but I sincerely hope that Osimhen can sign for the Neapolitan club and continue his journey in Europe as a protagonist.

After the exploit at the Charleroi, Lille has managed to confirm itself and Naples, now, is the right place for his definitive consecration both in the championship and in international cups

What are his main strengths?

He has an incredible vision in front of goal, Osimhen is good in the air and then he is very fast.

Some even compare him to Didier Drogba …

“Victor is still young, he has to go a long way to reach Didier’s level. But, in my opinion, one day he will also become stronger than him. Maybe in Serie A, maybe.
